Next Size Up!

I have been "quilting" for a short period of time. I am always reluctant to try anything too large in the sewing arena, I want to show you my latest.

I have done dotee dolls (seen on flickr account), fabric Artist Trading Cards and Fabric postcards and fabric journals. Then I got a little confident, not much but a little, and did a wall hanging for my grandaughter and lap quilts for my 4 grandsons. Now I have graduate to a little larger size and I don't know if you would call it a babyquilt or adult lap quilt. I have not perfected this to the extent I would like but I am trying. I try to do patterns that I like and most of them are easy to do as is this one. It is a quilt top from strips and sewed to gether. Now, I was in a swap for these blocks so there are a few of mine and a few done by others, then I did the backing which is black with tiny hearts of color over it. I also finished it in envelope style because I find that easy for me. Next time I will go up a level.

I am currently working on another top which will be very colorful, I do love color which I will show on my blog when finished.
